Member playing badminton

Not sure whether this is in the right section, so feel free to move mods if inappropriate etc
Was just searching to see if there were any members that had good photo shots of when they play themselves, as a lot of people here have high end cameras.

An "amateur" photographer that lives nearby me followed me to the last tournament, so I got like 150 pictures with just me in them But they are 21 mb each. I can upload a few that I have sized down though

PHotographed with Canon 5D, not sure about the exakt lens, but it was a tele-lens

Not all that nice, I know, in one pic, my racket's completely gone I'll ask her (girl who took those) if she can get a higher res....she likes those blurry pics cause they give you a better idea of the action, but I'd really like to see my racket when I smash - how far I can bend it, where I hit the shuttle....
Anyway, it was a training match which annoyed the hell out of me cause I played way too close to the lines and thus made a lot of errors. I'll probably have a few more pics soon - better ones, I hope.

PS: I really like the 7th pic - shows how far you pull the racket back to execute the shot. Looks like you're pretty flexible - at least more than me (my upper body is like super-stiff)
